Columbia Drama: When the Paper Turns on You

Imagine getting more heat from your own student newspaper than from campus protesters. That’s what happened to Eliana Goldin at Columbia. After posting a biblical poll on Instagram, she was booted from her columnist gig—not for the post itself, but because the backlash made things too intense. She wanted to bridge divides, but ended up feeling abandoned by the very community she tried to connect. Now, she’s leaving journalism behind to study in Israel. Wild, right? #ColumbiaUniversity #CampusLife #Antisemitism #StudentVoices #MediaDrama #Education
